About This Property

This semi-detached flat is located in COLCHESTER, CO2 7LE. The property offers 82m² (883 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. With an EPC rating of D (62/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. The oil-fired central heating has poor efficiency. Oil boilers are more expensive to run than gas and have higher carbon emissions. Consider switching to a heat pump (eligible for £7,500 BUS grant) for significant long-term savings. The cavity walls have excellent insulation, contributing significantly to the property's thermal efficiency and helping maintain stable indoor temperatures year-round. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £989, comprising £717 for heating, £209 for hot water, and £63 for lighting. The property produces 3.8 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home. For landlords: This rental property with a D rating is positioned above the current minimum standard. With proposed changes to require a C rating by 2028, modest improvements now could future-proof your compliance.
